Out of interest, how child friendly is the series? Could my six year old nephew watch it ?
I watched on Saturday mornings when I was 5-6 years old!

I personally love it. (Nova Satori rules!)

Storyline as good?
I've read a bit about Dana, but don't want to uncover any big spoliers!

Chuckes... I remember that.... Chuckles..... Darn it, every time I have the money to buy the series, it seems I have to spend it on some unexpected necessities.

Only £23 which isn't bad, and I can finally watch the whole series before I get my copy of RTSC

) as there were still so many episodes left to go. Loved Max and Miriya marital team up and their colour coded VF-1Js (?). That's one thing I've noticed, the series never really goes into depth on the various models of mecha used, you have to do a bit of interweb research on that - I imagine having the orginal RPG sourcebooks or novels would help on that one too.
. I knew the Earth was in for a bit of a spanking, but on that scale! Pretty hard hitting stuff when you see citizens getting vaporised too . That earth based mega cannon rather evened the score somewhat! I suppose the mutual mass destruction theme was quite topical back in the 80s.

Binary Answer: Yes. Oh, it'll work with Rifts. We ran MDC campaigns all the time with stuff flown in from RT. The Rifts Conversion Book 1 provided rules and I'm sure you could find threads on the pros and cons of those. Nothing like a TechnoWizard with a VT in his hands.
The scale of range and damage has been debated a ton. You can look around for it.

Southern Cross & Next Gen work better for RIFTS, than Macross (the technological divide isn't as steep).
for such fast responces heh 
Sure it's a bit cheesy and dated in places, but the story line carries it. It's certainly made me anticipate the macross sourcebook, assuming I can get hold of a copy over here. I really liked the final, bitter-sweet episode. Bitter that the story was finally over, but sweet that that was jut the first act in saga Pretty sad to see Minmei running off into the burning city, even if she was a bit annoying. 
So far this could be shaping up to my favourite robotech war. sHaka wrote:So far this could be shaping up to my favourite robotech war.
